Couldn't load pickup availability
An extraordinary archival dress from John Galliano's celebrated Autumn/Winter 1998 Cabaret collection
This iconic flapper-inspired silhouette is crafted from fluid crimson silk chiffon and lavishly embellished with intricate red beadwork and crystal embroidery, creating a striking Art Deco-inspired décolletage
The original runway showpiece version was hand embroidered by the legendary House of Lesage, with the retail edition originally priced at £3,390 at Harrods
The rich monochromatic embellishment, weightless silk construction, and relaxed 1920s-inspired silhouette perfectly capture Galliano's fascination with theatrical glamour and couture craftsmanship
An exceptionally rare collector's piece from one of Galliano's most sought-after late 1990s collections
